To say that this was an epic night would be laughable cause it was way beyond that. The Bonzo Bash has become a staple each an every year of NAMM week for many years now.
To have it the same night as the “Randy Rhoads Remembered” back to back is beyond imagination. For those of you that could not be present you probably have seen all the video’s and pictures floating around on social media. I can tell you the next time you’re here for NAMM Week you owe it to yourself to show up to this event to see all your heroes playing their favorite Zeppelin songs to commemorate the life of John Henry Bonham, the greatest rock drummer ever. Again we here at BackStage360 are thankful to Noelle Kim, Brian Tichy and Joe Sutton for having us to cover this iconic event. A special shout out to The Yost Theater for sponsoring this event each an every year.
Some of the artists that came out to honor Bozo are as followed: Carmine Appice, Vinnie Appice, Jimmy D’Anda, Kenny Arnoff, Gregg Bisonette, James Kottack, and countless others that honor Bozo for his contribution to Led Zeppelin’s overall sound and for years of inspiration to all of us that love the music .
To all you folks that did not show up, you just can’t imagine what a great night of classic music you missed. You need to get your tickets early next year cause this show is a must for fans of rock.
